When Albert disappears into a crowd of costumed kids, Wren enlists the help of her best friend April (Jane Levy) and two nerdy classmates, Roosevelt (Thomas Mann) and Peng (Osric Chau), to find him before her mother returns from her own night of partying. Plot & Themes
The story includes a classic "nice guy vs. cool guy" subplot as Wren decides between her crush on the popular Aaron Riley and the genuine affection shown by the "geeky" Roosevelt. Production & Critical Reception
Beneath the slapstick comedy, the film explores the family's struggle to cope with the death of Wren and Albert's father. Albert’s "selective mutism" throughout the film is a silent response to this loss.
